6:30 pm
aided by thousands of fish oils designed to make it seem that not only was valuable information being a pain in the secret prison but that there was a very menacing threat namely. i have a different because i have every house. in the arabian peninsula i'm sorry i have to thank you so much that i will be right back. but you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else here's some other part of it and realized everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm sorry it was a big issue. for your group. and yet.
6:31 pm
let's not forget that we sat in the parking lot. i think. either one well. we haven't got the shows here or in the safe get ready because of the freedom.
6:32 pm
so they would like to make a correction on a story that we first shared with you last thursday i was wordstar to spread about google's new social media program google plus we made his statements the grab the attention of the public relations branch of the company apparently their fans will be alone a show now p.r. present of contact r.t. to let us know that two mate statements that we made in our story were incorrect so we want to correct them now first of all the p.r. agent said google glass is a not making profiles public they will eventually open the service up to the public to sign up once the field trial is complete and we feel the service is robust enough to meet demand profiles it will not be made public now this is what we're part of last thursday. the starting on july thirty first everyone's at google plus
6:33 pm
profile is going public and during the current testing phase you can keep your profile private but that's all about to change. and i'd like to explain to our viewers the sources where you pulled that information on was a piece from the register u.k. based site which categorize itself as independent news views and reviews on the latest in the i.t. industry second source came from a google page itself which stated today nearly all google profiles are public private profiles don't allow this so we have decided to require all profiles to be public if you currently have a private profile but you do not wish to make your profile public you can delete your profile or you can simply do nothing all private profiles will be deleted after july thirty first two thousand and eleven at the top of the page the graphic clearly shows the google plus project logo which will let our staff to believe that when google talks about their profiles they are referring to profiles on the google plus program turns out i was incorrect we should also note that other online sites
6:34 pm
mashable app plan or even the news page from yahoo hold the same information from google's own help page and share the direct text as well so we finally got in touch with another google p.r. is that if we spoke on behalf of the company and she clarified the statement that google profiles is what you use if you form a google plus page and those will be made public if you don't change if you do not change the privacy status of your profile it will get deleted by july thirty first so while google has what we reported it's not false to say that your account will be gone if you don't change it to a public status so it seems like google is trying to get into a different time as for how we word it what changes are under way google's headquarters now to be clear here google profile will not be made public on july thirty first against your will but if you've chosen not to make that profile public by that date it will be delete it therefore you are no longer be able to have a private google profile after july thirty first now the next point that p.r. rep chris hill brings up has to do with our comment about google's
6:35 pm
a huge new department this is what we said last week. it's see major changes have been made to how you tube users can register and operate on the site for years you tube is allowed users to upload videos and comments anonymously the noble position is apparently changed and you see it will no longer let people register with anonymous names they will now have to use an existing email account to upload or comment on the site. all right so let's clarify how we obtained the data for that comet again we pulled information from the u.k. site the register which stated it's no longer possible for individuals to simply log on to youtube with anonymous user name the world's largest broker has clearly spotted a flaw in the size business model and is now forcing users to sign in to the video sharing site using an existing a google account such as that used for say now within that piece they also point out how they contacted a person at google to clarify that information the google p.r. person sent the site this link it's holds it still holds the google plus project's
6:36 pm
headline at the top of the page and it carries this statement within the first paragraph google profiles is a product that works best in the identified states this way you can be certain you're connecting with the right person and others will have confidence knowing that there is someone real behind a profile they're checking out for this reason google profiles that requires you to use the name that you commonly go by in daily life or the register also reported that when after further clarification from google about what their statement meant when it comes to you tube the representative said at this stage there is no further information to share so googling you tube has sent out an announcement to tell their users the all you tube users must be linked to a google account in order to sign into their you two page while you tube nor google directly state that you can't be anonymous we understood that announcement to mean that every commenters every comment users now make on the video sharing website will be linked to their real names on their group profile and google account so in retrospect we realize that that was not true we stand corrected myself in the. rest
6:37 pm
of the team for the low show would like to express our regret if we shared any false information or mr exempted misrepresented any information about google plus their account profiles and it changes to youtube accounts that are not so hopefully just shared will provide google's p.r. department some insight into the reasons why we reported the information in the manner that we did we had no intention to mislead our viewers and of course if anybody has any further questions or comments you can always reach us through our regular feedback sites or you can refer to google's regulations and policies on their page although you might find them slightly confusing too but hey at least it's good to know the google or is watching. well today we have news for you about aaron swartz he's executive director of demand progress and co-founder of reddit and he's been a frequent guest on this show but yesterday he was arrested and charged with violating federal hacking laws for downloading four million doctor documents from jay stuart from mit's network now if convicted of the felony charges short's could
6:38 pm
face up to thirty five years in prison and a one million dollars fine m j stores a company that provides digitized copies of academic journals it's used in universities all over the country and they've already come out saying that they did not refer this case to the feds and that all the information has been returned but the rest is once again showing a lie on the fight for open access to information and state and provider to wired dot com david so gallantly executive director of demand progress said it's like trying to put someone in jail for allegedly checking too many books out of the library but other open access advocates say that schwartz has just set the movement back so what do you make of this case well joining me to discuss it is bear brown founder of project pm and organization that works to improve the distribution of accurate and informative bear i want to thank you for joining us and tell me how you see this felony charge up to thirty five years in prison does the crime fit what the punishment might be here. i think most people look at this bill sense
6:39 pm
compared to what he actually did but agree that it's at the core of. the robot a real problem here is that it really is the extent to which she has obviously the limited resources to choose and prosecute how much money did. the prosecution of the stations and the past year to have two years we've seen them increasingly decide you know instead of going after certain crimes that one year old rushmore significance much more closely it's democratic institutions or country they're going after information and when you when you look at what we know to got harder scenes in terms of wiki leaks. very obvious charges and so on and justice department having you know helped bank of america was looking for a way to covertly go after the leaks. i think that this demonstrates the
6:40 pm
extent to which. you know. you have we have a certain you have a patient a law in some cases but it happens to drive the government once and you see you see other other crimes not be able to. it really solved the rule of law. by the public how do you you know how do we make this very clear as to where this thing is so the government information that's being stolen this you could say is a is a copyright battle and it's not like this is music that these are academic journals that these are you know the things that researchers academics have already been paid for by the institutions for which they work to do the research we're into fall into that whole you know i guess it's a bubble of what it is ok to to download and to steal and when one of the things. well i mean it's reasonable for there to be you know flaws. privately held her you
6:41 pm
know so i probably held back a from it but the again the problem is you can prosecute someone for that or likely going to run but when you have thirty five year sentences and when you have and when you have other problems when the punished in the information feel like for instance with the contractor and said on this you know early this year. you know we're going to see someone who has access to information. about a fellow that you know was pretty much unchanged for picking up from the bush i'm alive. that's again that's it shows the extent to which. you can commit crimes and do it that way but then. something happens jive with the prevention which page dormitory and what do you say some people out there that are also part of the open access movement or supporters of getting information out there say that what aaron did was reckless but it's actually put the movement back
6:42 pm
as few years because now it's somehow equated it with people like and all psychos that are irresponsible. well i mean you're there there's always a reaction whenever someone next mission and there's and depending on how that plays in video you know that may possibly put back and abuse some people but unless moves are made in that regard when it's progress to cambridge i mean the whole point of this movement is to challenge the laws and rules in to help sway public in favor of what we're trying to do and that intense instances like this in which it should be controversial not one cent and you know i don't accept the fact that i think. since i'm responsible. no one did you know some degree provide sympathy for that. and lastly we just reported on the fact that out of our fourteen anonymous arrest yesterday from these people are teenagers thirteen
6:43 pm
fourteen years old i think the fiber doing well among the mentally legal defense and race in january the national law repealed stuff and providing free health information english and patient vacations to many of those suspected killers set up in. california where many of the tried again i mean the second us which is the charge made faces seniors. that again places with this problem were by the feds or overreaching like managed to do because the information age in a way that in accordance with justice i mean when you look at. the conflict with what they were imparting to be very. inspired to actually crime to confront room. to believe and the fact that all these turn around and see thirteen year olds nineteen year olds taking in your kill sentences whether it's patients in a lot of ones and zeros. nobody that kind of kind of lets it into perspective i
6:44 pm
thank you so much for joining us tonight. now coming out of a gimme if you be a filmmaker lantern high school time segment and happy hour stick france tell it to members of congress are trading insults and nearly everybody is trying to make money off of this fact but anderson cooper f. kennedy back in the smoke. inside only a military mechanisms do the work to bring justice for accountability. i have every right to know what my government's doing you want to know why i pay taxes. but i would characterize obama as a charismatic version of american exceptionalism. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so sleep you think you understand it and then you glimpse
6:45 pm
something else here sees some other part of it and realize that everything is ok and you don't. charge welcome to the big picture. says. let's not forget that we had an apartheid regime right here. i think iraq the bombing is beautiful and funny well. whenever government says they're going to keep them safe get ready because you give them your freedom.
6:46 pm
for. all right it's time for tonight's told time a warden's night it goes to james o'keefe he's a conservative film maker and i use that term loosely who has a history of making undercover videos of evil wrongdoings going on here in the u.s. now turns out after the release of those videos it's been learned that most of them
6:47 pm
have been very heavily edited to make somebody shall i say left leaning person or organization look back case in point b. acorn or n.p.r. but o'keefe the latest target is medicaid here he sends a man dressed in a kilt into a charleston south carolina public assistance office and a man claims to be a member of the irish republican army and asks for help for twenty five fellow irishman who are in the hospital so take a look at this clip clip of the latest work given that sean murphy tells the state of south carolina he is a terrorist seeks health care for foreign citizens exports illegal weapons and possesses incredible will what would the medicaid office do. you need. a twenty five. or thirty apartment. now the video you see the woman in the office explain the rules and the process of filling out the paperwork to get medicaid she also explains anything he says must
6:48 pm
remain private because that's the law to protect patient privacy and guess what o'keefe releases o'keefe released the video saying of this woman is a terrorist sympathizer i'm sorry how can james o'keefe are a terrorist sympathizer because she didn't report the incident to the police she can't because the law because you could be arrested and fined for divulging any information that she learned during this meeting but that is classic o'keefe there you go after somebody who's actually doing their job now as i mentioned earlier he's got a habit of the videos to make people look guilty we all remember his they've been hosting the target eight koren and how fox news jumped all over that story. this is . a cool ok. we're. going to get from. these videos were particular about filmmaker james o'keefe who's
6:49 pm
joining us on the couch he is dressed exactly in the same outfit that he wore of the corner offices. now that's being held scribble a coronet it turns out after are viewed by police and prosecutors it was determined that no laws were broken and the footage had been heavily edited including the pimp outfit which o'keefe never actually wore into any of the acorn offices next o'keefe went after n.p.r. and again fox news was more than happy to help. her approach to. this course. well guess what it turns out the n.p.r. tapes had also been edited and some of the comments were taken out of context now before the g.o.p. used the issue to try and defund n.p.r.
6:50 pm
oh and by the way that's done good cause to n.p.r. exact their jobs with james doesn't care who ends up out of work it's all just fun and games that for him so my question tonight is when are television networks the web sites going to stop giving him a forum to spread his video information any time he releases a new video you should probably bet that it's heavily edited and full of deceit and that's why he's tonight's told time where. it's time for a happy hour this evening and joining me tonight is archie correspondent lauren lyster and derek thompson senior editor at the atlantic thanks for join me guys. think that we're all familiar with the west for about this every every american now holds a special place in their heart for these people and i'm studying but we've seen them protest soldiers' funerals what else have we seen them picket. high profile
6:51 pm
events in just i mean a multitude of funerals betty that more and more you know. right myriad of funerals all week but apparently they might be getting a little bored because they're going to go pro dad kids concert. they're going to see these alerts. this bread of life they're going to start right back out but they're going to get it you know she he's like. he's not going to. hurt the family he's the biggest family member so. i don't know what's better is the people were there the faces painted it trying to talk some sense and speak some logic to the westboro baptist that they hate gene simmons because he's involved the no hate campaign he's opposed to california's prop eight and are the same sex marriage ban and because he's jewish he said you know you're a sniff it is part of the problem but you thought of the running out of things to
6:52 pm
protesting gay marriage lisa salient a cultural issue and you know a lot of other issues that they've been protesting against recent in the news gene simmons is just a spokesperson for dr pepper any sort of and may still be i'm sure i think many would say yes but no one's really thinking about use him and so i think it is points to the fact that there's sort of running out of things to horning out of places to protest now that every time they announce a protest a state quickly moves to try and pass a law that bans them from being within three hundred feet of the funeral i think arizona did that and illinois has done that and so now that more people are like passing laws that limit where they can deal with you know they can be i think i get more creative. concert i hate going on all that says you know all does every dime to me like you know i don't care and i think i think they're getting a little bored at least pick a rock star that's like popular today you know just a maybe at one time there are two or that i know they have a tour that they go on they planned so maybe that was just maybe the way it is convenient placing because it's a little passe thirty kiss fans out there they're going to get mad at me for that
6:53 pm
but the thing about the westboro baptist too is that the supreme court ruled in their favor that they are indeed allowed to practice their first a member rights and take it at these funerals and listen to this in federal appeals appeals court yesterday oh. overturned the conviction of a man who posted internet messages threatening a barack obama during his two thousand and eight presidential campaign because they said it was clear that he wasn't actually planning to kill him but basically if you want to write that you want to kill the president or the campaigning against the candidates for president you can well actually understand when i look at what this guy the concert this guy was making he was saying the president has you know i don't know how to say the way guns are set like a fifty caliber does that make sense you know coming out and i don't think that actually qualifies as i can understand that there is gray area there between like whether someone's actually saying i'm going to do this or saying this is what someone has coming to that i need i think it's pretty finite readily agree to a very direct threat there is no clear and present danger i mean this is what you get with the first amendment it protects people's right to say stupid and wrong
6:54 pm
things and this was a stupid and wrong thing just like other people say the whole purpose of the constitution you see people freak out over it just the way you know after the arizona shooting of course and gabby giffords in january was the vial rhetoric and of course it was what was the sarah palin thing that she was she made targets everywhere and people are saying that you know that that contributed to it but if you're saying you know if someone's got a fifty caliber thrown at them then i sorry it is that is your first amendment right to say that i mean anybody has any direction because they want to be in this country and we're proud of it and if there are any let's just look at any of our youth to prominence ok let's talk about anderson cooper for a second we're going to show you this again but as you all know he has a new talk show that's coming out soon. before no one does a better question i want to enjoy you want to leave. it more like i want other people to as well one story a new daytime talk show september. they want to live more laugh more get more
6:55 pm
out of life apparently he's doing just that because then anderson cooper and i'm tweeting a picture of himself shirtless and covered in mud and he says i'm off for a few days from this can you guess where in the world i am exact location and turns out that he were. to columbia not a spot i don't like cause he says i'm sorry you're shirtless and you're covered in blood and you don't like this mr natural volcanic my treatments nature i think we all know anderson cooper like spots i'm going to say about this in this scene doesn't know a lot of it was an exact similar he's almost the exact same thing he does every year right we're in the world is matt lauer he goes around and he does not know there's less well there's. more elements of it that is like. the most trusted name in news i understand we will not make it i was surprised he tweeted that i thought that you know i just was
6:56 pm
a friend you could easily see helpless pictures of anderson cooper and the tabloids i think i don't know maybe he's pulling out. to a talk show host now he has to be a celebrity you know longer to be with us to haitian orphans now he's a celebrity we're talking to the protesters and desperation you know i mean this is you know his ratings haven't been that high for him scripted three sixty's transition to a different show this is the way to do it look here we are going like getting to come is what that means i last story tonight so this is just turned into a whole. mass between allen west and denver. and basically she called him out for supporting this horrible debt ceiling bill they passed and he e-mailed her and said you are the most vile unprofessional and despicable member of the u.s. house of representatives you've been proven repeatedly and you are not a lady and therefore not be afforded due respect from me but the funny thing about this to me is the way that washington works is that immediately the d c c and emily's list of already sent out things asking for money. fundraise off of someone
6:57 pm
else's bad words i do not forget this man called one of ours not a lady i mean i think it's everything about money policy is talking ammunition right it's difficult to do or to people and say look republicans say this is about medicare but this is why we think that ours is the more fiscally sound plan it's much easier to say look some republican said very mean things about a florida congresswoman this is what we're going to say about republicans it's i mean he gave them ammunition you go to the gun another going to fire to use the gun metaphor you're just back with the guy. but yeah i mean really that's what that's what gets people to sign on to say see he called she said he said she was a lady and he's a professional and that makes you want to start. throwing your cash around i guess careful what you e-mail although it's not being used against you very very very good thing for joining me that's it for tonight's show thanks for tuning in thanks for the come back tomorrow if you like our jail t.v. interview last week just waiting to hear what the navy has been a few reporters for defense technology international going to be on to discuss the unbelievable amount of money we're spending on that here in the meantime don't
